The other nine are in an other language that does not interest most of you and I won't go there.
Complety agree, all the back story just anayed me. the exploration parst of the books were pretty good but then there would be four chapters about

::spoiler::
whats her names youth and her relationship with the king, father, her dauther or the boy who cleaned her table at lunch one day in the summer of bla bla.

Rendezvous with Rama is still one of my favorite books though
